Thanksgiving has turned into Christmas

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We had a big day before we left around school. We started our day with eTIF drills and then some classes invited their parents into see what they are doing in class. It was a wonderful day to visit with parents during Mini-society.

In other news, Friday is an early release day. Monday will be Pearl Harbor Day. The Junior High Choir will come by to carol next week on Thursday. Please note the following classrooms for their Christmas programs on December 15:

11:00 - Calton/Robinson/Wright, Henson/Jaynes/O'Quinn
1:00 - Goans/McGinnis/Staats, Admire/Dickerson/Sutherland/Foster

The program will take place at Hillcrest Baptist Church so everyone will be able to be seated comfortably.

Our last day of Band for 2009 will be on December 14. Our last day of school in 2009 will be December 18.

It should be a great month. Enjoy and stop by to say HI!

November activity

It is time for our first United Nations Activity Night. It will take place on Friday the 20th, after school. Parents are asked to pick up their children at 5:30. Notes were sent home giving directions on what door students will go out to find their parents. If you are part of the back door pick up, please make sure you are facing the basketball goals to pick up your children. Then you can drive right out the parking lot on to Kennedy drive, next to Hillcrest Baptist Church.

We will have our quarterly drills on Tuesday the 24th. The e-TIF (earthquake, tornado, intruder and fire) drills will take place in the morning.

School will not be in session on November 25-27. Happy Thanksgiving everyone! We will see everyone back on November 30.
